Scripture Readings for August 11, 2024

Jesus says that the bread he gives for the life of the world is his flesh, and whoever eats this bread has eternal life now and will be raised on the last day. In Ephesians Paul tells us what this life Jesus gives us looks like, this life we live as those marked with the seal of the Holy Spirit in baptism. We live in love, as Christ loved us and gave himself up for us. The whole purpose of life is giving yourself for the other.

Isaiah 9:6-7; Psalm 51:1-7, 10-12; Acts 2:1-6; John 20:11-18

From the Pastor's Desk

Grace and peace to you!

Though God shows up in the midst of many ordinary days in our congregation and lives, there are some days when God's presence is especially visible. God promises to show up in the bread and the wine and in the water and the word. This Sunday we have the opportunity to experience God both through communion, baptism and affirmation of baptism. We are filled with joy and gratitude to welcome new members into the body of Christ and to Hutto Lutheran Church.

As we worship this Sunday we are invited to imagine ourselves at Camp Chrysalis surrounded by grass and trees and stars as we are led by our youth sharing their experiences of God this summer at camp.

We also have the privilege of blessing both students and teachers as they begin a new school year.

Giving thanks to God for the gift of the call to be church together!!

God's peace,

Pastor Amanda
